Hoba is a wall / ceiling lamp with diffuser in blown opaline glass, etched with a procedure of blowing of the non-rotated glass in an open die to permit production of forms that are always slightly different from one another.‎ Support in natural polyamide.‎The ⌀ 36 cm version is only available for ceiling mounting.‎Hoba piccola ⌀ 13 cm: Max 1x8W G9Hoba midi ⌀ 19 cm: 1x6,5W E14 2700K 806 lm CRI>80Hoba media ⌀ 24 cm / Hoba grande ⌀ 36 cm: LED retrofit included 21W E27 2700 K 2451 lm CRI > 80Dimmable with TRIAC technologyAn ancestral form we seem to have always known, but with a surprising aspect: a perfect-imperfect that usually finds little room in the overall design landscape.‎ Hoba is a new outcome of the many years of research on blown glass conducted by the designers Ludovica + Roberto Palomba together with Foscarini.‎An anti-geometric lamp, a collection in blown glass made of constantly different pieces, serially produced but with the unique characteristics of things made by hand.‎The inspiration behind this new family of lamps comes from the meteorite for which it is named, the largest ever to fall to earth, discovered in Namibia in 1920.‎ Hoba takes its cue from the asymmetrical and irregular form of that object distant in space and time.‎ Made in opaque blown glass with irregular concave features, it resembles a rock fallen from the sky, deformed by speed and crystallized in the moment of its flight.‎ Hoba is a complete family of lamps that offer different perspectives.‎ It comes in suspension, table, wall and ceiling versions, with the sizes small, midi, medium and large.‎ Hoba’s light is warm and enveloping, perfect for illuminating spaces on its own or in compositions that also take advantage of the four available sizes.‎
